My Big Day ---- September 6th, 2013

This is the day Dan and I got married .... Best moment of my life.  We decided to plan the wedding in 4 weeks, it was small and just family.  We decided if we didn't get married now it would probably be a few more years because of everything going on with me.  It was a nice, quiet get together.  The wedding happened middle of my treatment, so I was exhausted and in a lot of pain.

More to come, trying to get caught up ...

I'm BAACCCKKKKK ..... Update on last month or so

I know I know I know ..... I'm horrible at this whole blogging thing, but I spent sometime looking at this website 'BLOGGER' and figuring out all the features it has and I've added an app on my phone so now I can blog from anywhere.  My promise to myself and everyone else is that I am going to update it as regularly as possible even if it's just a quick post to share exciting news or an accomplishment or whatever.  As I was looking through all the features I came across all my followers and from what country they are from.  I was absolutely shocked to see that people from ALL OVER the world have been following my blog.  It makes me feel pretty good and I hope that some of those followers are people going through similar situations and hopefully my blog helps them get through the tough and crappy times.  I'm no Kris Carr or anything and I'm not exactly the most positive person right now, but I try to be as honest as I can in my blog and share my accomplishme...

My Days in ICU and in Private Room

My days in ICU were alright I guess.  I spent a lot of time sleeping.  For the first few days my blood levels were everywhere and I ended up needing more blood after the surgery.  A lot of my time in ICU was a blur.  Saturday which was day after my surgery was Alyssa's first birthday.  I can't believe she is 1 already.  I did get to see her on her birthday which was nice, but I was tired and she was in a new place and got fussy pretty quick.  The morning of her birthday my sister in law and brother were kind enough to watch her and had a mini party for her.  See some of the pics below: She had a blast for her birthday and was totally spoiled.  Back to ICU days .... My doctors had thought I'd still have the breathing tube in a few days after surgery.  Everything went so well I was moved out of ICU by Tuesday.  I was moved to my own private room, it wasn't on the floor my doctor originally wanted me to be but it...

WOW I haven't Blogged since April .... Lots to catch up on

Where to begin?  First I apologize I haven't blogged since April...I promised I'd keep my blog up to date when I got home but things have been busy busy busy.  On April 17th I had my routine followup appointment with my surgeon Dr Ghert.  All went well, my scans came back clear and she was very happy to see me walking and was impressed with all the progress I have made.  I still get alot of anxiety at those appointments and I sure hope that gets easier and easier as time passes.  My next appointment is in July the week before we leave for the cottage.  In July it will also be 1 year since I've been diagnosed, something to celebrate for sure.  As Kris Carr would say it will be my 1 year CANCERVERSARY lol!!!!!  I asked my surgeon about returning to work and she said that I should talk to her in 6 months from now.  I am eager to get back, but also know that I can't push myself too much or else I'll set myself back.  Ive been...
